I've been training my pushups for a few months now. I recently found some cheap pushup bars for like $4 at a dollar store and I like using them because I find they keep my form better, it's less strain on the wrists, and you can also go deeper into the pushup since you're elevated a bit.

I've never had much of an addiction to sugary foods or pop/soda as far as I can think, but whenever I get soft drinks now I always make sure it's the diet/zero variety (I honestly do not mind the taste, some people are more picky about that) and in general I budget my calories by skipping breakfast (since I'm never hungry in the morning anyway) so I can have larger portions at lunch/dinner. Also I straight up haven't been eating dessert lately. Although actually yesterday we found these tofu dessert things at the grocery store. It's fairly large servings, and each is 60 calories which is nuts. It's not the most amazing tasting thing ever since it's just lightly flavored tofu, but I find it's decent at filling the dessert craving.

I've gotta agree with the physics based diet of calories in < calories out! 30 minutes of running is about 300 kcals, which is the same as two slices of toast with some cheese. Don't have time to run tonight? Skip breakfast :D

But use something like myfitnesspal to actually count calories. Don't guesstimate. And work out what you naturally burn a day (it's probably not 2000 if you sit at a desk all day!). I'm down 14kg from this, actually just 1kg from my final goal so... yeah!

(exercise is obviously important and good, please do it, but if weight is the problem then exercise will only make maybe a 10% difference compared to just cutting out calories)

Very important part. Around this time last year I was using MFP for a while and I looked back this morning and it was pretty pathetic how bad I was cheesing the numbers. On one day I had marked that I had 3 slices of pizza for only 350 calories. Realistically it was probably more like 800-900 (I don't remember where the pizza was from). A few weeks ago I started using it again and I'm being way more liberal with my calorie estimates when I have to guess (sometimes nutrition info just isn't available on what you eat)

All of what you said is very true. And congrats with your progress! I'm down 25-30 pounds since last year (I didn't take my initial weight before starting to exercise), and most of that progress really came this year when I put much more effort into exercise and watching what I eat.

When nights are chill, and filled with doom,
Again will rise the cursed legume,
So if you're out on Hallowe'en,
Beware the wrath of largest bean!
The sparkly pink thing that might bite your head off.

Can't be beaned if you're already Bean... or something. I guess.

So, apparently there's a movie based on Murder on the Orient Express coming out sometime.
I'm wondering where the demand for it is.
And the song they chose for the trailer, Believer, I don't think really fits...

Nope... Not even a little a bit.
